I am working on making a very simple IFrame control for silverlight.
Goal: Control the placement of an IFrame overlayed on a silverlight application
The silverlight IFrame control is being used inside a silverlight application that allows the user to build a search query, then a url is formed from the search query and set to be the source of the IFrame. It's a basic search application.
I want the IFrame to change size and position based on the size and position of the silverlight control.
I found code here: http://www.kirupa.com/blend_silverlight/absolute_position_transformtovisual.htm, that I put in the constructor of the silverlight control to get the position of the control relative to the silverlight application. I then use that position to set the IFrameLeft and IFrameTop dependency properties of the silverlight control.
this.LayoutUpdated += (obj, args) =>
GeneralTransform gt = HtmlViewerStackPanel.TransformToVisual(null);
Point point = gt.Transform(new Point());
IFrameLeft = (int)point.X;
IFrameTop = (int)point.Y;
Then in the SizeChanged event I have the following which makes the changes to the IFrame. In the constructor I set FrameID to be a new Guid. Then create an IFrame with that Guid as the id.
private void UserControl_SizeChanged(object sender, SizeChangedEventArgs e)
IFrameHeight = (int)this.ActualHeight;
IFrameWidth = (int)this.ActualWidth;
var iframeElement = System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Document.GetElementById(this.IFrameID);
iframeElement.SetStyleAttribute("width", string.Format("{0}px", IFrameWidth));
iframeElement.SetStyleAttribute("height", string.Format("{0}px", IFrameHeight));
It only works as desired if the silverlight application takes up the whole browser window. However that is not how I most commonly use it.
From reading this question: Getting absolute position of an element relative to browser, it appears that if I could get a reference to the object tag HtmlElement that the silverlight application is hosted in I could read the offsetleft and offsettop properties. If I had the position of the object tag relative to the browser it seems like I could very easily calculate the silverlight control's offset from the browser. Since I can determine the silverlight control's offset from the silverlight application.
In the past I have just given the object, or a wrapping div tag an id and then used the HtmlPage.Document.GetElementById to get a reference to the element. I'd like to avoid that if possible.
I tried this in the LayoutUpdated event after getting the GeneralTransform and setting the IFrame Left and Top. It gets the object tag and uses the offset properties I talked about before.
var objectElements = System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Document.GetElementsByTagName("object");
if (objectElements.Count == 1)
var objElement = objectElements.Single();
IFrameLeft += Convert.ToInt32(objElement.GetProperty("offsetLeft"));
IFrameTop += Convert.ToInt32(objElement.GetProperty("offsetTop"));
} while ((objElement=(System.Windows.Browser.ScriptObject)objElement.GetProperty("offsetParent")) != null);
Using the object tag to get the offset from the browser window works, I was having some problems with one of the pages I tested it on then I learned that the offsets are from offsetparent instead of always from the browser window. I added the code to loop untill the offsetparent is null. The code now basicly works.
I want to be able to put the silverlight control anywhere, and the IFrame be contained to the area of the control, and be at the position of the control.
I'm wide open to any ideas on a better approach to positioning the IFrame to match the silverlight control.
Here are a few more examples of what I'm trying to do:

Melatonin is thought to be the main molecule that transmits the signal of seasonal change to the neuroendocrine system in seasonal breeding species. Melatonin exerts its effects through specific melatonin receptors, MTNR1A and MTNR1B. In the present study, six native goat breeds in China and one introduced goat breed were analysed to investigate the relationship between the genetic polymorphism of receptor genes and seasonal reproduction. Sequencing results showed that there were five polymorphic mutations in the MTNR1A gene and two in the MTNR1B gene. In the MTNR1A gene, genotypes AA, AB and BB for 424C>T and genotypes CC, CD and DD for 589C>A were observed in these goat breeds. In all six native goat breeds, only genotype AA was detected. In the MTNR1B gene, genotypes EE, EF and FF for 1179G>A and genotypes GG, GH and HH for 1529A>G were detected. However, in Gulin Ma goats, the genotypes EE and HH were not found. Moreover, the base of G at position 1179 and A at position 1529 were linked (By Arlequin ver 3.1, Zoological Institute, Berne, Switzerland, http://cmpg.unibe.ch/software/arlequin3,D′ = 0.7496, r2 = 0.4421, χ2 = 489.8679, p = 0.000). Among these mutations, no amino acid change was found in MTNR1A, while both of the mutations in MTNR1B gene caused amino acid changes of R222H and S339G, respectively. The structural analysis showed that the R222H mutation occurred in the first amino acid residue of the third cytoplasmic loop, and the S339G mutation was located in the carboxyl terminus of the protein. In terms of seasonal breeding, all the genotypes we detected showed a similar kidding frequency distribution trend with a higher frequency in May–August than in January–April and in September–December. This suggests that the relationship between the polymorphisms in the MTNR1A and MTNR1B genes and seasonal breeding could not be established.

We're using visual studio 2005. I know, but it's what we have.
So, we have a project folder, plus some "other" code in another folder. The other code is from other groups and is read-only. Since we're using clearcase, this other code area is subject to change. Without going into a lot of boring detail (I still don't "get" clearcase myself so please don't ask), what we normally do is map the view of this other drive to a fixed drive letter using subst.
I'd like to get away from that and use one environment variable to reference that other code drive.
I defined an environment variable 'blah', pointing to the drive and path of this other code. I've got the solution files fixed up by simply referencing the env variable %blah%. My trouble is trying to get the project (vcproj) files to similarly behave when reference files from that other code area.
Within the vcproj file, I've tried:
< File RelativePath="%blah%..."
< File RelativePath="$(blah)..."
Neither work - I receive an error when I try to open the file:
u:\path\to\vcprojfile\$(blah)...\myfile.c Cannot open file.
Before I modified the vcproj file, the RelativePath attribute contained the absolute path to the file. So, why is the environment variable not being properly expanded? Can I even do what I want to do here?

Nothing better than a pair of Sperry shoes! Awesom
I love Sperry shoes. Classy, stylish, and comfortable.......you can wear them anywhere and put your own spin on "the look". Can walk forever in my Sperry shoes.......
Great shoe
Great Spring Summer and Fall Shoe
These shoes are great. They fit like most of the other traditional Sperry boat shoes. They look much better when they are worn. They are a little stiff and clinical looking when you first get them, but once you wear them four or five times, and they get a little worn they look better. Adding some water proofing/shoe polish helped to make them look a little more weathered, so they had more personality. They are initially narrow on the sides of your feet, but after you wear them they get much better. This is my second pair of them and i would definitely buy them again. Color is a little lighter than I expected, I think I would buy the medium tan next time.
Love this shoe!
I've been wearing Sperry Top-Siders for over 30 years and the excellent quality remains the same. I wear them as a kick around shoe when performing tasks around the house or outside gardening. I really like the Bluefish with the comfort cushioning inside, it is a very comfortable shoe from the moment you put it on.
Love my Sperrys

Monica Prasad: Land of Plenty (of Government)Roundup: Historians' Take
tags: NYT, regulations, income inequality
Monica Prasad, an associate professor of sociology and faculty fellow in the Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern University, is the author of "The Land of Too Much: American Abundance and the Paradox of Poverty."
Why do European countries have lower levels of poverty and inequality than the United States? We used to think this was a result of American anti-government sentiment, which produced a government too small to redistribute income or to attend to the needs of the poor. But over the past three decades scholars have discovered that our government wasn't as small as we thought. Historians, sociologists and political scientists have all uncovered evidence that points to a surprisingly large governmental presence in the United States throughout the 20th century and even earlier, in some cases surpassing what we find in Western Europe.
For example, European banks did not have to contend with regulations separating commercial and investment banking, as American banks did under the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. Until the 1980s taxes on capital income were higher in the United States than in most European countries, where taxes on labor were and still are higher. American bankruptcy law has been harder on creditors and easier on debtors than any of the countries of Europe, even after bankruptcy reform here in 2005. Or consider the famous case of the thalidomide babies in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Thalidomide was a drug given to pregnant women for nausea. It caused devastating birth defects, from stunted limbs to spina bifida, and many babies died. Thalidomide was widely available in Europe and produced thousands of cases of birth defects there. But the Food and Drug Administration kept thalidomide off the American market, successfully using aggressive governmental intervention to protect children from a pharmaceutical company with a dangerous product. They would be in their early 50s now, those babies saved by the F.D.A. I wonder sometimes how many of them are walking around today complaining about big government....

UCSF Home Page
Here's a cool reuse, thanks to Creative Commons... My photo of flick is making a guest appearance on the UCSF home page.
Here is the summary of their new findings:
"The beetle's back and the crab's shell owe their toughness to a common compound called chitin that now appears to trigger airway inflammation and possibly asthma, UCSF scientists have found.
Insects, molds and parasitic worms — all common sources of allergies or inflammation — produce billions of tons of chitin a year. Humans and other mammals lack chitin, but we do have specialized enzymes to break it down. The scientists wondered why…
In the last 10 years, the "hygiene hypothesis" has been proposed and explored to explain why asthma and other allergies have greatly increased in many industrial nations, Locksley explains. The hypothesis holds that modern societies have largely cleaned up living conditions so that people are exposed to far less dirt and all of its organic constituents. At the same time, antibiotics and microbicides have reduced the numbers of microbes in the environment. Bacteria are known to degrade chitin, and Locksley suggests that the reduction in bacteria may lead to an increase of chitin in the environment — largely from molds and insects — perhaps explaining the findings from several studies that the highest childhood asthma risk tends to be associated with the lowest exposure to bacteria."
Here's more info on asthma and inflammation from Apieron.

The global climate is changing. During the last 100 years warming has been observed in all continents with an average increase of 0.6 0.2 C (man SD) in the course of the 20th century. The greatest temperature changes occurred at middle and high latitudes in the northern hemispheres. The trend towards warmer average surface temperatures for the period since 1976 is roughly three times that of the past 100 years as a whole. In the last decades warming seems to be attributable to human activities (man-made environmental changes) like land-use changes, deforestation, urbanisation and the reduction of wetlands. Global climate change is likely to be accompanied by an increase in frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. Climate variability occurs at both the level of gradual change as well as the level of extreme events. Extreme weather events are those events which society is unable to cope with. They are by definition rare stochastic events. Europe has experienced on unprecedented rate of extreme weather events in the last 30 years. Heat waves occurred in France, Italy, Portugal, Russian Federation, Hungary and Bulgaria between 2000 and 2003. The annual number of warm extremes increased twice as fast as expected based on the corresponding decrease in the rate of cold extremes. On the other hand cold waves brought serious health problems to Northern Europe, Russian Federation and even Bosnia Herzegovina. In 2002 Romania suffered deleterious windstorms and Public Health responses were necessary. Last but not least, in recent years severe flooding occurred in many European countries like U.K., Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy and Germany causing enormous damages, e.g. in August 2002. On the basis of current predictions on climate, more extreme weather events have to be faced in the coming years and they are likely to be more severe. Thus appropriate actions have to be undertaken in order to protect the population and the co

Hot answers tagged cruise-control
Not normal for cruise control. My Land Rover Discovery has "Hill Decent" mode which allows you to take your foot off the brake while going down steep hills. The computer then takes over controlling the speed of the vehicle using the brakes. This function is mainly for off-roading.
My Honda did this, I found it was the floor mat getting jammed against the gas pedal. Other than this it could be: Worn out gas pedal cable, replace it. Extremely dirty throttle body that is sticking, in this case clean the throttle body with approved throttle body spray cleaner.
There are two type of cruise control, passive (normal) and adaptive (has other names) Passive cruise control targets a speed, it reduces throttle position to slow down, but if engine braking is less than the effect of a steep downhill, the car will gain speed. This type of cruise control is not integrated with the braking system. Adaptive cruise control ...
I Think this is normal behaviour of a car which has upwards of 150/170hp. When you are in your 3rd or 4th gear your speed should be more than 40kmph below that the car might stall. The ECU is detecting the imminent stall and compensating by increasing the rpm and the speed of the vehicle , you do not need to press the accelerator for this to happen. ...

We came across this hotel by accident whilst looking for somehwere to have lunch. A bit of a hairy drive up a steep road but once at the top we were very happy with the location. Brilliant view over the countryside and coast below with tables to suit to enjoy this.The food was not expensive at all compared to the places we called in on the main road/area below, in fact we came back the next day as we were not prepared to pay the price in the more touristic area below with a less ambient atmosphere.
We had traditional food as is our way when abroad and were very pleased with the fayre provided including the house white wine. We have great photos of the resident toucan. The staff are excellent, very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for the food, view and ambience but cant comment on the accommodation.

that speak directly to the serious concerns that we have in this country.
And before criticizing his principled stance against the government overreach that is Obamacare, don't you wish that he had somehow succeeded in derailing that poor excuse for public policy?

OYAMA, Japan -- Fernando Alonso won Sunday's Japanese Grand Prix for a victory that was almost a sideshow to a breathless race that provided another twist in the title fight.
While the rejuvenated Spaniard made it back-to-back wins in his Renault, the race's history of season-defining incidents between title rivals gained a new chapter when Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa tangled in a memorable second-lap collision.
Both leading drivers received pit drive-through penalties before Hamilton finished out of the points for McLaren and Massa came in seventh following a post-race stewards' decision that elevated him from eighth.
That meant Hamilton's championship lead was cut from seven points to five with two races remaining. BMW's Robert Kubica, who finished second, continued to sneak up on the pair and is 12 points off the lead.
The drama began from the green light. Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen -- starting second on the grid -- got the better of pole-sitter Hamilton and was set to get through the opening corner first.
But Hamilton, eager to take back the lead, went into the bend too quickly on hard tires in cool conditions, taking him off the track and forcing Raikkonen to do the same.
Pushed down to sixth, Hamilton attempted to fight back on turn 10 of the second lap, passing Massa and forcing the Ferrari driver wide.
Massa trailed into turn 11 with two wheels off the road, went over the curbing and collided with Hamilton, putting the Briton into a spin as Massa continued.
"I was outside and then he pushed me a little bit close to the gravel," Massa said. "I had two wheels on the gravel and he closed out and we touched. Because I was on the gravel I couldn't do anything as we touched and that's it."
A Ferrari crew member punched the air in delight as it appeared Massa was set to trim or maybe erase Hamilton's title lead.
But his joy was short-lived since race stewards soon announced both drivers had to serve pit drive-through penalties: Massa for the collision and Hamilton for the opening corner.
After their penalties, Massa and Hamilton were 14th and 15th respectively and the interest centered on whether they could fight back into the points.
Massa did, passing Red Bull's Mark Webber in another hair-raising maneuver that almost forced the Ferrari driver into the wall along pit lane.
That appeared to have given Massa eighth and a single point, but he was promoted to seventh by a post-race stewards' ruling that imposed a 25-second penalty on initial sixth-place finisher Sebastien Bourdais of Toro Rosso for a collision with Massa on the 50th lap.
Massa was critical of Hamilton's behavior on the first corner.
"It was a big casino out there," Massa said. "It was pretty optimistic for him, especially if you consider the championship."
McLaren team principal Ron Dennis said he was surprised Hamilton was penalized for the first corner, but the driver himself remained optimistic.
"I've only lost two points to Felipe in the drivers' championship, so it's definitely not over," Hamilton said. "Now I'll forget today ever happened and move forward."
The incident was reminiscent of the collisions between title rivals Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna in the 1989 and '90 Japanese GPs, but Massa insisted his relationship with Hamilton was not about to become as poisonous as the interactions between those two greats.
"I have a good relationship with Lewis and I will not do anything to destroy it," Massa said. "We are colleagues, we have a good relationship, I admire him and he admires me."
While the focus will be on Massa and Hamilton heading into next Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix, Kubica should not be overlooked.
Last year, Hamilton led Raikkonen by 17 points before the Finn won the final two races to secure the championship.
Kubica is closer, only 12 points behind. It would be a remarkable world championship if the Pole can pull it off, considering he has only won one race in his career, at Canada this season.
"Kimi showed last year that anything is possible," Kubica said. "The difference is I have two guys in front of me, not one, and at normal pace it's no secret we are not as fast as Massa and Hamilton, so life is a bit more difficult."
Alonso's back-to-back wins have lifted the two-time world champion, who had made little effort to disguise his disappointment with Renault's struggles for most of the season. He is expected to stay with Renault despite a huge potential offer from Honda.
"I know what to do but I will announce it after Brazil," Alonso said.
His win in Singapore had more to do with good luck than anything else, but he required no such good fortune Sunday.
"I cannot believe it right now, but back-to-back wins is a very nice feeling and the team did a great job to improve the car," Alonso said. "We are now just behind Ferrari and McLaren and this is completely amazing."
Raikkonen was forced to settle for third after a thrilling late battle with Kubica for second, with the pair wheel to wheel through a succession of corners.

Long-Lost Ace Propels Mets
Making Long-Awaited Return, Santana Baffles Braves for Five Innings and Mets Take 2012 Opener
In the hours before a game, Johan Santana can appear somewhat deranged. He has been known to crank the music in the Mets' clubhouse gym, singing along to Michael Jackson or Reggaeton or whatever song is in his head. It's not uncommon for him to berate his teammates, with a face so straight that he can only be joking.
"He's usually a nut," Mike Pelfrey said.
But Thursday morning, something was different. Pelfrey didn't notice him screaming at anybody. There was a certain calmness about him.
Santana, perhaps, already knew what everyone at Citi Field on Opening Day would see during the Mets' 1-0 win over the Atlanta Braves: Everything would be all right.
There had been so much concern about his shoulder, so much pessimism about the Mets' season. All of it seemed to fade away, if only for a few hours, on a sun-soaked afternoon in front of an announced crowd of 42,080, the largest since the ballpark opened in 2009.
David Wright drove in the Mets' lone run with a sixth-inning single. Their new-look bullpen passed its first test, with four relievers combining for four scoreless innings. And most importantly, Santana threw five scoreless innings in his first major-league game since Sept. 2, 2010.
"Just seeing him out there, it was like, 'Okay, this is real,'" R.A. Dickey said. "He's really back."
Not only that, but Santana pitched as well as anyone could have expected. He allowed only two hits and two walks while striking out five. And while his fastball sat mostly in the high 80s, Santana's off-speed pitches gave him the deception he needed. The proof was not so much in his changeup or slider but in how Braves hitters reacted to his fastball. Three of his five strikeouts came on 88-mph fastballs that drew swings and misses from the heart of Atlanta's lineup: Brian McCann, Dan Uggla and Freddie Freeman.
It was the surest sign yet that Santana hasn't lost his ability to wreck hitters' timing. "To me, pitching is about keeping hitters off balance, and that's what I'm trying to do," he said.
The only real moments of tension for Santana came in the fifth inning, when he walked Tyler Pastornicky and pitcher Tommy Hanson to load the bases with two outs. But with the game still scoreless and the count full, Santana got Michael Bourn to ground an 88-mph fastball back to the mound.
Santana's throw to Ike Davis was high, but Davis reeled it in, ending Santana's day after 84 pitches.
"I walked down to the end of the bench and said, 'You did a great job,'" manager Terry Collins said. "He said, 'No, I got another one in me.' I said, 'Yeah, I know, but that's enough for today.'"
For as much as Santana may have resembled his old self Thursday, the Mets know they need to ease him back. They will limit his pitch count to around 90 for the foreseeable future. He will have to be remarkably efficient to pitch into the late innings, which makes the Mets' bullpen depth all the more important.
General Manager Sandy Alderson made the bullpen his main offseason priority, signing Frank Francisco and Jon Rauch and trading for Ramon Ramirez. Neither of the three impressed the Mets during spring training. But Thursday, they offered a reminder of how little spring results matter.
Ramirez allowed just two hits in 1 1/3 innings, Rauch pitched a perfect eighth inning and Francisco pitched a perfect ninth to earn his first save as a Met.
"They made Sandy look pretty good today," Collins said.
It was one of many reasons the day brought a sense of calm to a beleaguered franchise, a feeling personified by their ace.
There were reasons to worry about him, given the unpredictable nature of shoulder injuries. And there are always reasons to worry about the Mets.
But the sight of him on the mound, healthy and effective, gave the team all the reassurance they needed.
"You could see it in his eyes," said bullpen coach Ricky Bones, who watched Santana warm up. "He was ready for this moment."

One Day in the Books, One Player Down
Terry Collins's wish finally came true: For the first time since taking over as Mets manager last year, he wrote a lineup card that included his nine best players. After a frustrating spring filled with nicks and bruises and pulls and sprains, the most snakebit baseball team on Earth somehow made it to Opening Day with a clean bill of health.
It took less than seven innings for the dream to end.
Leadoff hitter Andres Torres strained his left calf chasing after a ball in the right-center field gap, aggravating an injury that plagued him for two weeks in spring training. He will go on the disabled list and will fly to the team complex in Port St. Lucie, Fla., by Friday to begin his rehab. The timetable for his return is unknown. Minor-league outfielder Kirk Nieuwenhuis seems like the best candidate to replace him on the roster, and Ruben Tejada will assume his duties atop the Mets' batting order.
"I don't think this is as bad as the one he got in Florida, but still, when you rely on your legs, it's a serious injury," Collins said.
Torres, whom the Mets acquired in an offseason trade with San Francisco, declared himself "100%" healthy earlier this week. Collins said after Thursday's game that Torres "passed every test, every single test he needed to pass" to play in the opener.
In the seventh, Braves rookie Tyler Pastornicky laced a line drive into the alley. After a few steps, Torres said he felt a pull in his leg and hobbled to a stop. Lucas Duda ran over from right field to retrieve the ball at the wall, as Pastornicky raced to third with a triple. Torres immediately exited the game, accompanied by trainer Ray Ramirez.
"Andres is kind of like the Energizer Bunny," Jason Bay said. "He's a high-energy guy, and for him to just let the ball go to the fence and just stand there, I kind of figured that's not something he would do."

Product Description
"It is impossible to get to the heart of those classics unless you live them, and [Easwaran] did live them. My admiration of the man and his works is boundless." H U S T O N S M I T H, author of The Worlds Religions (Reviewing Easwarans translation, The Bhagavad Gita)
About the Author
Eknath Easwaran (1910 1999) was brought up in the Hindu tradition and learned Sanskrit from a young age. He was chairman of the English department at a major Indian university when he came to the United States on a Fulbright fellowship in 1959.
A gifted teacher and writer who settled in the West, Easwaran lived out the principles of the Gita in the midst of a busy family and community life. His translations of the Indian classics, The Bhagavad Gita, The Upanishads, and The Dhammapada, are all best-sellers in their field, and more than 1.5 million copies of his books are in print.

Many Gita commentaries (including Easwaran's own three-volume set) explore the text passage by passage. Through these, we quickly discern that the battle described in the Gita is not physical but internal and that this battle is won using will power rather than firepower.
Beyond the individual words and passages, however, lies much more. Deftly wielding his little but powerful lamp, Easwaran leads us on a spelunking trip deep into the heart of the Gita. Along the way, we encounter wisdom from such varied sources as Shankara, Gandhi, Sri Aurobindo, Spinoza, Jung, Canadian neurosurgeon Wilder Penfield, physiologist Hudson Hoagland and others. The journey is at once simple and profound.
The book begins by introducing the split in consciousness between our lower and higher selves that causes separateness and struggle. Easwaran explores the nature of reality and personality, explaining that we are not our bodies or our minds (!) and that identification with these imposters keeps us feeling separate from everyone and everything.
Beginning with chapter six, we move from theory to practice. Easwaran explains how to heal the split using a system of living that includes meditation, living deliberately and experimenting with our likes and dislikes. The words are practical and enormously compelling.
The final three chapters describe the journey of humanity toward its ultimate goal: self-realization. We have no choice but to fight this battle, Easwaran and the Gita insist. Putting our heads in the sand or playing with the toys of life only delays the battle and prolongs our misery. Ultimately, Easwaran's Gita tells us we will not only fight but also win and that this glorious day comes much more quickly when we seize the initiative and realize our potential.
This story could only be told by a lifelong student of the Gita, someone who has lived it each day and is now so familiar with it that its words pale against the underlying meaning. Even so, in the hands of a lesser writer, no one but an enlightened being could even understand how the meaning derives from the words. But Easwaran's ideas fit together so well and are so nicely supported by the sparsely used but powerful Gita verses that, by the end, it's utterly impossible to deny both the wisdom of this interpretation and the inevitability of its effect on us.
The book displays Easwaran's usual graceful clarity of thought and word. But I think this is the deepest of Easwaran's books to date. This one goes deep, deep into the heart and mind of humanity. I've gained insights from this book which I have not gained from his prior books, even though I've studied them all. Maybe I just wasn't ready for these insights until now, I cannot tell for absolutely certain-sure. But I think this book is deeper.
I've just finished it; I will re-read it this week, slowly, and ponder its message. I've no doubt it will be read again and again, and become dog-eared rather quickly. It's a life-changing, seriously life-enhancing book, perhaps particularly for those individuals who are chasing material goods and/or power in the sad delusion that these will make them truly happy. But it would be life-enhancing for everyone.
In conclusion, I can do no better than copy a sentence from Nalini's review: "Nowhere have I found such a clear exposition of the path into deeper consciousness and how we can truly transform our personalities." This says it all.
Pat Meadows (who is deeply grateful to Easwaran and to the editors of this book - Thank you!)
The first few chapters describe in detail the split in our consciousness that keeps us from being who we really want to be. What is this split? Easwaran characterizes it as "the tension between the upward pull towards freedom from biological conditioning and the downward pull that holds us back." Through the use of compelling imagery, Easwaran helps us see that living at the top of this split - "the world of everyday experience" - can never be satisfying. We live in emotional turmoil, and then feel that there is nothing we can do about it.
As with all of Easwaran's writing, I love the fact that he makes this understanding immediately applicable in our own lives, if we're willing to put in the effort required - that is a spiritual practice that includes meditation and allied disciplines. Otherwise we cannot help reacting to the events in our lives. In chapters six through eight, he shows us how learning to train our attention and juggle our likes and dislikes can make our minds more even. "In whatever walk of life we may be engaged, once we take to meditation, life becomes vibrant with meaning because every moment we have a choice - if you like, between immediate personal gratification and personal growth, between personal desires and the welfare of all. It is this exercise of choice that slowly begins to transform all that is ugly in our life and consciousness into a work of art."
The subsequent chapters outlines how the split continues to heal at deeper and deeper levels in the later years of our practice. First, we are training our attention, then our will, and finally our desire. What a long journey into the depths of our consciousness - over lifetimes!
Nowhere have I found such a clear exposition of the path into deeper consciousness and how we can truly transform our personalities.
While there are many good points made as well as illuminating examples about how to live a more spiritual life, this book did not equal his previous books. This may be because it was put together by students of his 8-point program based on Easwaran's notes and he was not there to bring it all together in a more cohesive way as he had done so professionally with his other books. (His MEDITATION book is a favorite of mine. In fact, I've had to buy it several times over the years because any time I lend a copy, it's enjoyed so much that it doesn't come back! I also highly recommend his three-volume work, THE BHAGAVAD GITA FOR DAILY LIVING.)
One of the things I found disappointing is that someone who is new to Easwaran's work or to Indian Philosophy will be confused by the term "yoga." Yoga is explained, but the book would have been stronger if the book had explained clearly, right from the start, that this is not the yoga "exercise" that many Westerners associate with the word.
There were also errors in punctuation, grammar, and style. I came across several examples that were not attributed to the original source, such as "The Prayer of St. Francis" and a Bible passage, and at least one quote that was incomplete. Also, some examples were presented as if they were just being introduced, but were actually a repeat of earlier examples in the book. Something else that bothered me was that the book blurb included is about an earlier work of Easwaran's. The blurb on the back of the book should be about THAT book.
All this is not to say that the book is without merit. While I would not recommend it as an introduction to the BHAGAVAD GITA, it does reinforce many concepts present in Easwaran's other books, so it works fairly well as a review. Some excerpts:
"That which is infinite can be filled only with something infinite."
We "believe we are separate individuals when there is really only one Self in billions of forms."
"Nirvana" is "the blowing-out or extinction of all self-centered thought."
"...the cause of personal stress is not outside us but arises from our perception."
"Karma is essentially an opportunity to learn."
Finally, a passage from the BHAGAVAD GITA, whose passages are pure poetry:
"You have the right to work, but never to the fruit of work. You should never engage in action for the sake of reward, nor should you long for inaction. Perform work in this world, Arjuna, as a man established within himself--without selfish attachments, and alike in success and defeat. For yoga is perfect evenness of mind."
From this still point, Easwaran uncovers for us the various layers of the Gita in a rich tapestry. He covers topics such as the nature of reality, levels of personality, our illusion of separateness from the rest of life, the meaning of yoga, healing the unconscious, and so on. These are woven together seamlessly, giving the reader a panoramic view of the Gita that few authors can provide. Easwaran's genius is his ability to describe the timeless truths of the Gita in language that is contextual and easy to comprehend. And yet, as the publisher's note points out, this book is a distillation of 40 years of teaching. Like any other distillation, it is concentrated and must be savored in small portions and repeatedly. That is certainly what I intend to do!

The rooms are very clean, and the hotel looks new from the inside out. nice, cozy furniture in the lobby. Staff can be better, I would give them a 7/10, but the room is easily 8/10.
The price is very good and fair since the parking is free, while most hotels in Germany make you pay for the parking at least 10 Euros extra.

Photo Details
Photo identified on back in pencil as what appears to be Miss Dougherty (of Phila?). Only the first two words are legible. The photo is 2 1/2" x 3 7/8" and was taken at "Rehn & Sons, New & commodious Ground floor Galleries, 510 Arch Street, Philadelphia. There was a green 3 cent revenue stamp on the reverse. There are several pinholes at each corner showing that this photo was hung up and by its condition, it was obviously carried with love.
